    Hi,

    I just installed Jobberbase and the main page works fine. http://74.220.207.182/~planets1/jobberbase/

    When i click on any of the links, none of them works, I get error message 'Page cannot be displayed' and it is looking for http://74.220.207.182/~planets1/jobberbase/job/2/illustratorphotoshop-expert-at-unrealexpectations/

    Can you please advice, what I may be doing wrong.

    Thank you.

    This may sound like a stupid question but did you use the htaccess.txt file included and when you renamed it did you rename it .htaccess (notice the dot '.' before htaccess). Check it out, a simple mistake that can cause that problem.

    I had the same problem. I changed the allow override control in the apache httpd.conf file to "AllowOverride All" (without quotes) and that worked for me.

    Loopy, trust me .htaccess do exist o n the server, it is something else. Appreciate your time and let me know if you can think of something else.

    ddam, I talked to the hosting company guys and they said httpd.conf file is not available for update. They are saying it may cause other security issues. So how did you manage to change this file.

    newbie5, hopefully if i can find a fix, i will let you know and if you do, please let me know.

    filip, can you please provide me some suggestions.

    Thank you all.

    Newbie:The httpd.conf file is in the conf directory of the apache install directory.
    On my Linux box its at /usr/local/apache/conf/http.conf
    On my windows box its at: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\conf

    John: Im working on a local computer so I can just open it and edit it. If your at a hosting company, they would probably have to change it for you unless you are on a dedicated box with root access or have write permission on the file. But, this may not be the problem. You could ask your host if the conf file is allowing overides to be sure.

    well, it looks like several people (including me) are stuck with this problem. so far no solution…. hopefully filipe or some other expert can fix the bug and correct the new version — because i really want to start using this script ;)

    Check the override settings in your apache conf file.

    Should change None to All

    # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
    # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
    # Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
    #
    AllowOverride All

    Flakdesign, thank you for htaccess info.

    All, I finally got the site working.

    The only difference now is, previously i had to enter http://74.220.207.182/~planets1/jobberbase/ . After updating DNS server details, the jobberbase started working perfectly fine. So the web address is now www.planetsap.com/jobberbase. I did not realise, web address can cause intallation issues.

    I did not have to change anything in .htaccess or apache config file.

    Folks that provided me suggestions and ideas, thanks a bunch.
